1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

In the study of the mechanism of wound healing after anal fistula surgery, how to scientifically and efficiently promote wound healing is of great significance. At present, modern medical treatment of wounds after anal fistula surgery mostly focuses on physical therapy intervention, new wound dressing and packing, and external application of growth factors. However, these therapies have many problems, and there is still no consensus on their clinical use. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has several methods to promote wound healing, such as oral administration, rubbing, and fumigation, which have a long history and obvious efficacy, but research in this area is relatively scattered and lacks classification and summarizing. Therefore, this paper analyzes and summarizes the existing research on TCM for promotion of wound healing after anal fistula surgery, carries out targeted analyses according to different clinical syndromes and treatment methods, and analyzes the defects in current research and anticipates future research trends in order to provide theoretical support for the advantages of TCM in promoting wound healing after anal fistula surgery.
